You should be feeding your Amazon a good variety of high quality vegetables ( broccoli, squash, kale,carrot) also nutrient dense fruits like blueberries , but just limited quantities of high-sugar fruits like apple, grape and banana. A high quality pelleted diet along with the veggies is the "basic" everyday food that is recommended by most avian vets, not an only seed or nut diet. Look on manufacturer websites for how to safely convert your bird to pellets. Nuts like almond and walnut are good for a treat maybe 2-3x a day but NOT a whole nut each time, only a piece the size of a pea or so. Amazons tend to get fat in captivity. In the wild they fly up to 40 miles a day, but captive birds are unable to do this! If your bird is not flighted in your home or does not get lots of exercise (wing flapping, a big play area for climbing) you need to be very careful. They can get fatty liver disease and heart disease easily if you feed too many carbs, table food and seeds. Keep the sunflower seeds to an occasional treat or sprout some and give the bird the fresh shoots. If your bird eats only sunflower seeds the human equivalent would be a person only eating french fries all day, every day. That is a nutritional disaster.

I have a DYH who is 14. I don't feed him any sunflower seeds. They tend to be a heavy bird so I feed Andrew Kaytee Pro Health Safflower Blend. My conures and cockatiels are fed a safflower blend also. Plus Zupreem Fruit Pellets for all!

I've had an Amazon parrot for 30 years. I have never fed my parrot the black sunflower seeds. I really feel they are specifically for wild birds. Wild birds need seeds with high oil/fat levels to help them thru the winter. My Amazon likes the larger black/white sunflower seeds and safflower seeds, which still have some oil/fat in them. I purchase a mix blend of seeds from a reputable aviary shoppe that I have dealt with for many years. I also give him some raw veggies - potatoes, carrots, beans etc., but only organic.I hope this helps.Bob

Answer:

The question is, what is a low fat diet for a Amazon that gains weight easily . I would make the base diet a RoudyBush rice diet. Sold here

Mix in a little Totally Organic Pellets for fiber , ( a alfalfa pellet works great ) then control the amount of high fat treats like peanuts and sunflower seeds .Bean cuisine added on the top of the food will encourage the eating . Also sold here

Ideally your Amazon likes fruits and veggies - if there's one thing in particular, that could be the treat. If this isn't the case, halving a pistachio (the lowest fat nut) could work. Another thing is that if your bird doesn't like veggies is to make "birdie bread cookies or muffins" and give only a very small amount as the treat. Because it's something very different than what you normally feed him/her, they may feel very special to get it as a treat. Hope this helps.

I give my bird small slivers of raw almond or a small bit of walnut for treats. The best thing you can do for your birds, if you already have them on high quality pellets + lots of good green vegetables and fruits that are not too sugary, is to get them to move! I have taught my amazon to sit on my arm and flap her wings HARD a few times a day, or jump short distances to a soft surface like a bed or pillow. I don't trim my bird's wings, I think this is unhealthy for the birds mental state. I obviously don't take her outside without a cage and I don't leave windows wide open when she is out.Encourage lots of climbing and moving! These birds fly 40 miles a day in the wild so you owe it to your bird to not trap it in a sedentary, unhealthy lifestyle. Buy a scale so you can monitor your birds weight, keeping them fit is the best way to prevent illnesses and heartbreak!

Answers

Answer:

I agree with "a lot". I have had my male Caique for 27 years, and he is very healthy and active. I fill bowls twice a day with the F&S (or equivalent) parrot food but supplement with cut dried figs, carrot, grapes - really any different fruit and surprisingly, jalepeño peppers. He eats the green (or red) of the pepper but prefers to strip and eat the white seed inside. The heat does not seem to bother the birds at all. I give very small amounts of meat once in a while - after all Caiques hunt snakes in their native Ecuador and eat bugs as well. All my parrots have had occasional meat, and in the case of my African Grey, chicken bones. She strips the marrow from the bones.

Answers

Answer:

Eclectus cannot handle much fat in their diets. Most seeds and nuts are bad for them. We feed frozen corn and peas, fresh celery. They need greens like collard, mustard, kale every day as well and they mostly eat the stalk and the veiny parts. THey need apple (no cores) diced and like to have some skin on each cube. WE barely tenderize a mixed bean assortment (like the 15 bean soup mix minus the season packet of course.) and he gets 1 heaping TBS once a day with his food. The other meal he gets a heaping tsp of barely cooked (tender crisp) brown rice. We have a cereal mix we make up that has some 12 or more items of seeds and grains that are mostly fat free and include quinua,millet,lentils,and a bunch of others we get at the health food store in bulk.Put a heaping TBS in a pan and barely put enough water to cover it... bring to a boil..remove and cool.. then mix in with the rest. You can do 3 days at a time and refrigerate. Same with beans and rice but not more than 3 days for safety sake. HE gets fed about 1/2 cup of these assortments 2 times a day. Eclectus are "scatterers by nature" so they throw a lot fo stuff aside. We feed our on a platter and mix it all up so that he can pick and choose.. Oh, and they need 3 blueberries or a strawberry a few times a week as well and also some hot pepper cut up about every other day. They love the seeds and the hotter the better. Our bird is always in fine feather and you can never even tell when he moults except to see them fall. He is fully flighted and 4 years old and in perfect weight. We also have a mixture we get that has some flower petals and organic coconut and alfalfa and chrysanthemum petals and some 20 or more items. He loves it adn we keep some in a bowl..t hough I never give him more than a TBS about every other day. NEver feed anything with fat, vitamins or additives to your eclectus and nothing with ANY ARTIFICIAL COLORING. Fresh dandelion is a favorite.. MUST NOT HAVE BEEN WEEK SPRAYED EVER.. but pull one up roots and all and wash well. be sure it has no wild bird signs on it either. IT is a feast for them and they love it.. WE also get all our Millet sprays from Foster and Smith and he gets one every night. Get the big ones and buy the 5 pound size for the best value. Put some bay leaves in the container you store it in and it will keep the bugs away but NEVER LET YOUR BIRD GET THEY BAYLEAVES..Our friends say they do not eat as well as our bird unless they eat at our house

Eclectus Parrots can gain weigh VERY easily. In the wild they live on barely anything so their bodies will store fat like crazy when it is available. This helps them survive lean times in the wild but in captivity it can be a disaster because they are not as active. You should do more research on the web for the best combination of foods for this breed; World Parrot Trust has a great owner's forum and also Q&A with lots of expert Avian Vets that will be helpful. I don't think seeds alone are a good way to go. I am sure Australia has many reputable Avian vets, you should probably consult one about their diet as well as for taking your birds in for regular check-ups. Dog and cat vets don't know birds well enough, it's a whole different area of expertise!

My African Grey has been plucking for over 10 years. I just picked him up from being boarded at the vet while on vacation, and my vet mentioned his feather plucking may indicate a vitamin A and D deficiency. His current diet is 5 or 6 Lafeber Nutra Berries every morning, along with the same number roasted unsalted peanuts. He usually gets a few more of each every evening. If that is not a recommended diet, please suggest an alternative.

Answers

Sorry, but it isn't that simple. Parrots have needs more complex than just what vitamins they intake. I've had my parrot for 5 years and he started plucking when I first got him. I took the advice of folks on the Grey forum and threw all their suggestions at him and he hasn't plucked since. Here are the things I did.

Hung a telephone book inside his cage to give him something to shred.Hung a full-spectrum light above his cage so his full vision functions can be exercised (like a human living in a cave, a parrot living without full-spectrum light is depressed). This doesn't have to be expensive, just a flourescent light unit which you can get for less than $20 and a full-spectrum bulb to install in it.Began feeding him a breakfast of "glop" which consists of the following recipe: 3 slices whole grain low-sodium toast, 1/2 tsp flax seed oil, 2 tsp red palm oil, stage 2 organic baby food of high-content vitamin A (such as sweet potatoes, carrots, etc:), 2 tbsp ogranic yogurt and a chopped-up high-content vitamin A vegtable such as kale. Mix all together, divide into 10 or so portions, freeze and thaw as used. ( I freeze in 2-portion baggies as two days seems to be the max frig time on this stuff).Feed him whatever I'm eating for dinner keeping in mind that some human foods are poison to him (such as mushrooms, fruit seeds, avacado, and a few other things. Google "parrot diet" to get a full list of no-nos)Keep parrot nugget and seed mixtures in his cage for "on demand" feeding. And plenty of clean water of course.Spend a little time each day cuddling him. Remember these guys have the emotional needs and maturity of a 2-year old child, they need physical and emotional contact with their "flock" (that's you).

I hope this helps. Good luck to you and your bird.

Thank you for your question. As each bird is different, we would suggest going back to your vet to ask what they think you should do in your bird's specific situation. If they are thinking that he has vitamin deficiencies, they should also be able to tell you what they believe is the best solution to your problem.
